D2CKey Review:

The latest Wii mod chip and the only one at the moment that works on new Nintendo Wii consoles with d2c chipset is called D2CKey. You will need d2c key to play backup Wii games and GC isos. D2CKey mod chip is specially designed for the D2C drives and as such it will NOT work on other models of Wii. In a way that is good news because installing d2c mod is not an easy feat. D2Ckey chip as you can see reacquires 28 wires to be soldered on to the wii chipset. If you have an earlier version of the Wii you should use WiiKey that comes from the same development team and is easier to install and compatible with all earlier chipsets (but it is NOT D2C compatible).

Currently the D2Ckey home page claims that the chip will not need any updates however the ACTEL chip used in making this mod-chip is Flashable so in case there will be a need to modify the D2Ckey firmware - it will be possible. Installation diagrams for modding d2c are provided below.

D2CKey PROS
+ Finally a modchip for D2C Wii owners that works.
+ Region-Override and GameCube Audio Streaming Fix is auto activated and does not require a setup DVD to be used.
+ Runs games burned on all kinds of DVD media - DVD-RW, DVD-R and DVD+R.
+ Does not require GCOS to play Game Cube isos from other regions.

D2CKey CONS
- More complicated to install than previous Wii Mod-chips.
